The new parents waited two days to introduce their new son to the world, a departure from the births of Kate Middleton and Prince William’s children when the couple posed for photographers outside the hospital. It’s not the only significant difference between Markle and Middleton’s royal baby births.

Here are eight ways that the birth of Markle’s royal baby has been different from Middleton’s.

“Their Royal Highnesses have taken a personal decision to keep the plans around the arrival of their baby private,” the statement said. “The Duke and Duchess look forward to sharing the exciting news with everyone once they have had an opportunity to celebrate privately as a new family.”

“Mother and baby are doing incredibly well,” he said. “It’s been the most amazing experience I could ever possibly imagine. How any woman does what they do is beyond comprehension, but we are both absolutely thrilled and so grateful to all the love and support from everybody out there. It’s been amazing, we just wanted to share this with everybody.”

Middleton and William introduced their babies to the world on the steps of the Lindo Wing.
